Sorry - my mistake. I thought I had removed those instructions. The
correct installation procedure is described at
http://openbabel.org/docs/2.3.0/Installation/install.html.

In short, you don't run "python setup.py" yourself. Instead you
configure cmake with "-DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON" and when you run "make",
it will look after everything for you.

I'll remove the instructions on the page you linked to.
